2 OASIS C Integument Assessment: Not for Wimps! Part II Stasis Ulcers and Surgical Wounds May 24, 2012 Rhonda Will, RN, BS, COS C, HCS D Assistant Director OASIS Competency Institute Purpose The purpose of this activity is to enable the learner to accurately define and use wound healing principles and terminology related to stasis ulcers and surgical wounds when documenting assessment findings for stasis ulcers and surgical wounds. Objectives Define stasis ulcers and surgical wounds according to WOCN (Wound Ostomy Continence Nursing Society) Guidance on Integumentary Items and CMS OASIS C conventions. Define the healing status of stasis ulcers and surgical wounds according to WOCN Guidance on Integumentary Items and CMS OASIS C conventions. 1
3 Skin Assessment Observe the skin at every assessment time point: Temperature Color Moisture Turgor Integrity Determine wound type and etiology. Who gets credit for this wound? Wound Assessments A anatomic location Ssize, shape, stage S sinus tract, tunneling, fistulas, undermining E exudate Ssepsis S surrounding skin M maceration E edges, epithelialization Nnecrotic tissue T tissue bed S status Baranoski, S., and Ayello, E.A. Integument items are: Based on what you see (tissue, structure, condition, etc.) Matched to the NPUAP Pressure Ulcer Stages and WOCN OASIS C Wound Guidance Document Modified by CMS guidance to report findings in OASIS data items Q87.1 2
4 Partial thickness tissue loss Wound Healing Involves epidermis and into but not through the dermis Superficial; presents as shallow crater, abrasion or blister Heals by epithelialization Regeneration of epidermis across a wound surface Wound Healing Full thickness tissue loss Penetrates through the fat (subcutaneous tissue) and may involve muscle, tendon, or bone Deep crater; may tunnel Heals by granulation, contraction and epithelialization 3
5 OASIS Alert! Status of the wound needs to correspond to the visual assessment of the clinician on the day of the assessment. Wound Status Not Healing Early/partial Granulation Fully Granulating Newly epithelialized Wound Guidance Document WOCN Definitions Degree of Healing Not healing Wound with 25% avascular tissue (eschar and/or slough) OR Signs/symptoms of infection OR Clean but non granulating wound bed OR Closed/hyperkeratotic wound edges OR Persistent failure to improve despite appropriate comprehensive wound management Early/partial granulation 25% of the wound bed is covered with granulation tissue < 25% of the wound bed is covered with avascular tissue (eschar and/or slough) No signs or symptoms of infection Wound edges open WOCN Definitions Degree of Healing Fully granulating Wound bed filled with granulation tissue to the level of the surrounding skin No dead space No avascular tissue (eschar and/or slough) No signs or symptoms of infection Wound edges are open Newly epithelialized Wound bed completely covered with new epithelium No exudate No avascular tissue (eschar and/or slough) No signs or symptoms of infection 4
6 M1330 Does this patient have a Stasis Ulcer? Observable stasis ulcers can be visualized OASIS Alert! Stasis ulcers are: Caused by inadequate venous circulation Usually of the lower extremity May be associated with stasis dermatitis OASIS C Guidance Manual Refer to WOCN Quick Assessment of Leg Ulcers Stasis ulcers do not include arterial lesions or arterial ulcers A healed stasis ulcer is not reported on OASIS OASIS C Guidance Manual 5
7 When a mixture of venous and arterial ulcers are present, report only the ones with venous disease as the etiology in M1330. Q100.1 An ulcer diagnosed by a physician as a diabetic ulcer is not a pressure ulcer or stasis ulcer. Q89 Upon skin inspection, the clinician finds an Unna boot. The patient says it s M1330 for a stasis ulcer Does and the this referral patient from the physician have a confirms the same. There is also an order not to remove/change the dressing for five days. The other Stasis leg also has Ulcer? a stasis ulcer with beefy red granulation tissue filling 75% of the wound bed. Upon skin inspection, the clinician finds an Unna boot. The patient says it s for a M1332 stasis ulcer Current and the referral Number from the physician of confirms the same. There is also an order not to remove/change the dressing for five days. (Observable) The other leg also has Stasis a stasis ulcer Ulcers with beefy red granulation tissue filling 75% of the wound bed. 6
8 M1334 Status Most Problematic (Observable) Stasis Ulcer Do not use! Not a response option! Most problematic is a clinical judgment Once completely epithelialized (newly epithelialized), the stasis ulcer is considered healed. A healed stasis ulcer is not reported as a current stasis ulcer on OASIS. OASIS C Guidance Manual M1340 Have a Surgical Wound? Observable surgical wounds can be visualized. Not observable, covered by a dressing or cast/device, per physician order. 7
9 Report current surgical wounds Unhealed wound resulting from a surgical procedure Scar Surgical wound that has been re epithelialized (epidermal resurfacing across the entire wound surface) for approximately 30 days or more without dehiscence or signs of infection How will you know when the 30 days begins? M1340 Have a Surgical Wound? Include: Surgical site primarily closed with staples, sutures, chemical bonding agents, etc. Wound/ incision I&D or other wound with a drain placement, e.g. paracentesis, stab wound, except if an ostomy Orthopedic pin sites Muscle flap, skin advancement flap, or rotational flap to surgically replace a pressure ulcer M1340 Have a Surgical Wound? Include: A take down of a previous ostomy Central line sites Medi port and port a cath sites and other sites for implanted infusion devices (e.g. On Q pump/q ball, etc.), venous access devices, AV shunt, and peritoneal dialysis catheter exit site regardless of functionality or frequency of accessing or not Shave, punch or excisional biopsy to remove or diagnose skin lesions Implanted pacemaker site until healed and a scar 8
10 M1340 Have a Surgical Wound? Include: Incision site to implant VP shunt until healed Arthrocentesis site; surgical procedure via arthoscopy Left Ventricular Assist Device/HeartMate exit site Donor site from a skin graft to a burn or pressure ulcer Repair of a traumatic injury Excisions of a mass, abscess, mesh, other appliances or structures, etc. beyond a simple I &D Cut down in order to perform procedure per femoral sheath M1340 Have a Surgical Wound? Exclude: PICC line and Peripheral IV Pressure ulcer treated with surgical debridement or sutured closed Debridement of an existing wound (traumatic, skin graft, etc.) Old surgical wound with scar or keloid formation Ostomies even with drains (e.g. thoracostomy/chest tube, gastrostomy, cystostomy, urostomy, tracheostomy, ileostomy, etc.) Cardiac catheterization and/or stent placement via a femoral puncture with a needle M1340 Have a Surgical Wound? Exclude: Needle aspiration of fluid without drain placement Enterocutaneous fistula Simple incision and drainage of an abscess Retention suture utilizing a button Callus removal Staple sites Simple excision or removal of toenail 9
11 M1340 Have a Surgical Wound? Exclude: Cataract surgery of the eye Surgery to the mucosal membranes Gynecological surgery via a vaginal approach Bowel ostomy or gastrostomy closing on its own Suturing of a traumatic laceration External device infusing medication via needle A pressure ulcer closed with a muscle flap that is not completely healed and breaks down due to pressure is a non healing surgical wound. Q 94 Implanted venous access and infusion devices remain surgical wounds as long as they are in place Q and Presence of sutures does not automatically equate to a surgical wound. Q An I&D with a drain placement is considered a surgical wound for OASIS purposes but is not coded as aftercare as it is not considered a surgery for coding purposes. Q
12 Surgical Wounds Frequently heal by Primary Intention Wound edges are directly next to one another Little tissue loss, no granulation occurs Wound closure is performed with sutures, staples, or adhesive May heal by Secondary Intention Has area(s) of partial or complete wound separation or dehiscence Wound is allowed to granulate If there is any separation of the incision, then healing will be by secondary intention for data collection purposes. OASIS C Guidance Manual Surgical wounds healing by primary intention do not granulate and can only be not healing until newly epithelialized for data collection. Q M1342 Status of Most Problematic (Observable) Surgical Wound Covered with new epithelial tissue < 30 days 11
13 Presence of staples, in and of themselves, does not meet the WOCN criteria for non healing. A surgical wound with staples in place would only be considered not healing if it meets the WOCN Guidance on OASIS Skin and Wound Status MO Items definition of not healing. Q Openings in the skin, adjacent to the incision line, caused by the removal of a staple or suture are not considered part of the wound when determining the status of the surgical wound. Q With an implanted venous access device, there may or may not be a perceptible wound with good access technique and current needle technology. Determine the healing status based on the visualization of the site. Q Some sites, being held open by a needle or line cannot fully granulate and may remain non healing while the needle or line is in place. Q The patient had a hip replacement 4 weeks ago. One week ago the therapist M1342 noted that Status the surgical of wound Most completely Problematic re epithelialized without S/S of a complication. On this DC visit, the wound is described (Observable) as well approximated, Surgical completely re epithelialized Wound with no scabbing or S/S of infection. 12
14 Primary or Secondary Intention? Newly Epithelialized or Not Healing? Not healing Early/partial granulation Fully granulating Newly epithelialized Scar/healed and not reported on OASIS Stage 1 PU Stage 2 PU Stage 3 PU Stage 4 PU Closed Stage 3 or 4 PU Stasis ulcer Surgical Wound Primary Intention Surgical Wound Secondary Intention Wound Types and Possible Status of Healing for OASIS Items M1350 Have a Skin Lesion or Open Wound Receiving Intervention Lesion is a broad term for pathologically altered tissue; all alterations of skin integrity; see list in Q Include: Other Clinical wound types intervention: (burns, diabetic ulcers, cellulitis, abscesses, wounds caused by trauma, etc.) receiving clinical intervention On-going clinical assessment or Non bowel treatment ostomies as receiving evidenced clinical intervention by orders per the POC/485 on (e.g., the cleansing, POC dressing changes, etc.) from the home health agency 13
15 M1350 Have a Skin Lesion or Open Wound Receiving Intervention Exclude: Tattoos, piercings unless assessment/intervention part of planned care Cataract surgery Surgery to mucosal membranes Gynecologic surgery via vaginal approach Wounds identified in previous OASIS items Types of Skin Lesions Many different types of skin lesions exist. These may be classified as: primary lesions (arising from previously normal skin), such as vesicles, pustules, wheals, or as secondary lesions (resulting from changes in primary lesions), such as crusts, ulcers, or scars. Other classifications describe lesions as: changes in color or texture (e.g., maceration, scale, lichenification), changes in shape of the skin surface (e.g., cyst, nodule, edema), breaks in skin surfaces (e.g., abrasion, excoriation, fissure, incision), or as vascular lesions (e.g., petechiae, ecchymosis). Q When receiving clinical intervention M1350 may include: Gastrostomy closing on its own Non bowel ostomies: cystostomy, urostomy, thoracostomy/chest tube site, tracheostomy, gastrostomy, new PEG or suprapubic catheter site, jejunostomy for enteral nutrition Callus removal Wound that is cemented and not the result of a surgery Bruising and edema related to staple insertion sites requiring interventions separate from surgical wound interventions PICC line and peripheral IV sites 14
16 When a mixture of venous and arterial ulcers are present, report the ones with an etiology of arterial disease receiving intervention in M1350. Q An ulcer diagnosed by a physician as a diabetic ulcer is not a pressure ulcer or stasis ulcer Q 89 M1350 could be answered yes at discharge when on the day of assessment, interventions for a wound that was not described in a previous OASIS wound item required home health intervention on the day of assessment. Q This is true even if the intervention was not provided that day (e.g. burn requiring assessment or dressing changes) and the PT did not perform the assessment or change the dressing on the day of discharge.
